Mark Schultz I Have Been There Lyrics:
Words and Music by Mark Schultz
From the recording: Song Cinema, Track #4.

In a room without a view
A new mother smiles and holds the tiny fingers
Of a brand new baby girl
husband takes her by the hand
So unsure about the future and no money
Can they make it in this world
And they pray, Lord all we have to give is love
and they heard a gentle voice,
like an echo from above

I have been there
I know what fear is all about
Yes, I have been there
and I'm standing with you now
I have been there
And I came to build a bridge so that
this road could lead you home
Oh I have been there

He'd been a pastor 20 years
But tonight he sits alone and
brokenhearted in the corner
of the church
tried to save a fallen world
With his words and with his wisdom
But it seems like it is only getting worse
And he cries, Oh Lord I just don't understand
then he felt the hand of grace, and

he heard a voice that said

I have been there
I know what pain is all about
yes, I have been there
And I am standing with you now
I have been there
And I came to build a bridge so that
this road could lead you home
Oh I have been there

there's a man upon hill
Holding flowers but he can't hold back the tears
o, He has come to say goodbye
He thinks about the life she lived
Thinks about how hard it's
been to live without her
60 years right by his side
And he cries, Oh Lord I loved her 'til the end
Then he heard a gentle voice say
you'll see her once again

I have been there
I know what sorrow is all about
Yes, I have been there
And I am standing with you now
I have been there
And I came to build a bridge so that
this road could lead you home
The road could lead you home

Oh I have been there
you know I overcame the cross
I have been there
So your life would not be lost
I have been there
And I came to build a bridge that
this road could lead you home
This road could lead you home
Oh I have been there
